Newman Cook & Gibson Richmond Hill Every Consult Telephone 118 During the long, trying years of conflict. we spoke freely and hope- fully of the new era. which was to come after the war. The men in our fighting forces on the far-flun battle lines throughout the worlfi were encouraged and buoyed up by the belief that they were fighting for a new world, a new era which they, their comrades and their loved “I am pleased, Mr. Speaker. to rise in support of this bill. because I sincerely believe that by its adop- tion we can make a real contribu- tion to Canadian national life. To- day we look out on a troubled world, a world bleeding and suffering after six long years of war. Here in our own country we have problems so perplexing and of such magnitude that sometimes I confess to a feel- ing of discouragement. I submit that in dealing with our national problems and in facing up to the problems of the world we must get down to a consideration of funda- mentals. "One great need in Canada today is for a patriotic spirit of de- termination to win the peace, com- parable to the splendid spirit of pat- riotic determination shown by the people of Canada in the winning of the war. During the war years the Canadian people met every challenge with.which they were faced during the most tryingr period in Canadian history. It did not matter whether the challenge was in connection with with men for our armed services, whether it was in connection with money for victorv loans, for the Red Cross, for munitions and supply, for food or for whatever cause it may have been the challenge was suc- cessfully met, no matter what the sacrifice. That was the spirit in which we made our Splendid contri- bution toward the winning of the war, and I submit that is the sort of§spirit we need to win the peace.l Ricln‘alc l‘.0. Phone Maple 6er: The idea 01' the Bill arose out of the feeling that all across Canada the celebration of our National Holi- day in July, in recent years. had lost much of its significance. It has been too much regarded as just an- other holiday. It was felt that a National Holiday. properly and whole-heartedly observed could serve a useful purpose in our national life. by inspiring a healthy spirit of pat- riotism. It was felt that by reviv- ing interest in our national birth- day We could build around it an edu- cational campaign, paying tribute to the pioneers of Canada, to the Fath- ers of Confederation who welded the provinces into a united nation, and in many ways play up the colourful and interesting historv of this great country. This, I think, is importâ€" ant, especially looking to the educa- tion of our young peonle, and the thousands of new Canadians who will come to our shores in the years that lie ahead. It was felt that celebrat- ing Canada’s national birthday no- thing could be more approm‘iate than that the holiday should be known as “Canada Day”. Subscrib- ing whole-heartedly to this view, I seconded the Bill which as I have already pointed out won very sub- stantial support from evel‘v province in Canada and on both sides of the House. Speaking in the House on the mea- sure, I said as reported: A full line of well known house- hold necessitics in stock Also hog and stock minerals dc- livered to your farm, one or more laags at a time, assuring you of a fresh supply at all times. Harold W. Mortso'n' Last Thursday the House of Com- mons by a vote of 123 to 62 passed the third reading of a Bill to desig- nate our National Holiday, July 1st as “Canada Day”. It was a private Bill introduced by the member for Matapedia-Matane, P. E. Cote, an Ottawa Journalist. Private Bills seldom pass the House. They usual- ly are “talked out” or voted down, but this measure enlisted very sub- stantial support on both sides of the House, and was given its three readâ€" ings and passed in less than four hours. The Bill, however, was in- troduced over a week ago and has been on the order paper ever since.

As soon as weather' permits we hope to have a Sea Cadet ball team going with games between Willow- dale, Newtonbrook and Langstaff. A few new members turned out and we expect more to follow, so tell your pal and swell this unit. future regular meetings. We would like to thank Mrs. Hes- lop and the School Board for the use of the school, time and efforts, in helping to get this unit started. In the near future we hope to have In the near future we hope to have “Parent Night” to let them see for themselVes what has been done for the benefit of their boys. Our very efficient instructor, Sgt. Major 0’- Connor is doing splendid work with this unit and is very proud of his boys. Don't forget, rence Memorial 18th. orgamzcrs Considerable time was taken up to welcome a distinguished organizer for Ontario Sea Cadet work in Mr. Haggerman, who gave the boys 2 very interesting talk of his work and experience, and what is expe-"ted of this unit, which he said the peOpIe of Langstaff should be very proud of. We hope to have Mr. Hagger- man visit us again at some future date. Owing to increased membership our meeting place has been changed to Lawrence Hall which Rev. Woods has kindly given to our unit for its future regular meetings. A grand turn out of members on Tuesday night for the regular meet- ing which is the ninth meeting; for this unit. A few absentees were re- corded, owing- to school examina- tions, were unable to attend but we expect them to turn out for our next meeting. a great deal to the future wellâ€"being of Canada. Thanks to the sacrifice of our people, the name “Canada” today stands high throughout the world. In this, the greatest conflict of all ages, our fighting men went into battle bearing; on their armour the name “Canada”. The bill the house is now asked'to'approve simply provides that our national holiday shall bear that same glorious name, “Canada”. It seems to me, Mr. Speaker, most fitting. following the measure passed bv this house de- creeing‘ that Canada should have its own distinctive national flag, and following the bill so ablv and elo- ouently introduced the other day b.V the Secretary of State (Mr. Martin) providing a new status of Canadian citizenship, that this house should follow through now and adopt this bill designating our national holiday as Canada day”. Langstaff Branch, Canadian Naval Cadet Corps It is true that our government has made a valiant reconversion effort in the face of most difficult world conditions. It is true that this ef- fort has been successful to such an extent that with pride and truth we can declare that we in Canada, are better off than people anywhere else in the world. But this is not enough. We are still far short of the ideal of a better life and that new era which we pictured during the years of war. In attaining that ideal we must not be hampered by an unwill- ingness on the part of our people to make sacrifices for peace compar- able to the sacrifices they were will- ing to make for‘ war. I regret to have to confess that I can see signs of a tapering off of our national willingness to make sacrifices to ov- ercome the problems of peace. It is indeed sad, if it be true, that we in Canada need the threat of falling bombs to inspire our best national endeavour; but unfortunately there is evidence that this is so. In plain language, what We need is a substi- tute for falling bombs to inspire the best efforts of our people. I do not suggest that by the simple adoption of this measure designating our national holiday as Canada day we can perform a naâ€" tional miracle, but in all sincerity I do submit that the taking of this step at this time can be made the basis of a crusade for a revitalized national spirit which can contribute ones at home would enjoy. They looked forward to that new day which would come when the forces of evil, as represented by our en- emies, would be destroyed” Those enemies have been destroyed, and now we must face up to the fact that the post-war era of which we spoke so much is here. Many of the boys who fought our battles have returned; more are returning, and there are still more to come. But as we welcome them back to our communities; as we talk with them about their reconversion problems and the difficulties they face in re- establishing themselves in civilian life, we cannot help being impress- ed by the sincerity of their concern for our national future. And I think if we are completely honest we must admit that as we talk with them they tell us the truth when they say that so far they see more signs of the old era than of the new.

Gordon Ingram of the Brockville Rifles ar- rived on Monday from two years service in Jamaica. Also L.A.C. Ken Jennings, RCAF, arrived on Sunday from England. These lads are all looking very fit indeed. We are especially glad to see Gordon Ingram improved in health after his very serious illness some weeks ago in Jamaica. The families of these lads held “Open House” for friends who called to welcome the lads back. All Maple boys with but one exception. Lawrence Wade, are safely returned. We are exceedingly fortunate, that out of the fifty or more who were in the service all but one have es- caped without an injury. Oscar Wil- son suffered shrapnel wounds in his chest. Three of our lads married English girls over there, Ray Fuller, Dean Quinton and Harvey Wilson. One soldier, Roy Clegg, has married since his return. Several have their pre-war jobs back and have settled back into civilian life. Mr. and Mrs. Carl Black of Ket- tleby were home at Ingram’s on Monday to welcome Gordon.
